I need a nap.

As always, all of my opinions have been reduced to a one-line blurb, the first thought(s) that come to mind when I think about a show. Extensive or indicative of the entire show? Hell no. The main goal is to finish it in less time than it took to find a header image. They’re all linked to my posts on them (or something at any rate) if you want more info.

And a friendly reminder, most shows are going to be mediocre and forgettable at best, make no mistake about it, so saying that isn’t exactly going out on a limb. My own tastes and preferences are not the last word in everything. Feel free to ramble or do whatever you want in the comments.

Anything that I am 100% certain I’m going to cover for at least another week gets a frog, I guess, even if I’m on the fence about it and/or very cross with the direction it’s decided to take in a second episode. That doesn’t mean I’ll stick with it past the next episode or two, and I guarantee you that the chance of me covering four shows on Thursday is slim. Likewise, just because I’m not looking forward to something just yet doesn’t mean that I won’t pick it up. I tend to watch at least part of the second episode of most things. This season had a very compact premiere schedule which was nice, but hasn’t given second looks at too many shows yet.

I guarantee you that I will not be covering four shows on Thursdays but I’m not sure which to go with yet, and BtB is right on the edge for Wednesdays and may very well be relegated to Blood-C/Rio style coverage where I just flip to the exciting part and if it turns into giant bunny monster blenders or space robot sharks later, so be it. I also have some other semi-significant news related to various anime coverage and whatnot that I’m going to post tomorrow as well. Otherwise, *shrug*. It’s a season. Nicely spread out across the week though besides Melodrama Saturdays (all the more time to work on the neverending black hole that is Seinarukana!).

This is indeed masochistic. I have not seen aroduc doing a daily coverage from recent memory. (Oops.. My bad, not covering Saturday. Blame wall of text :P)

Compared to my initial viewing list of 1 (Korra), it means there is a lot of shows that depend on personable preferences. After preview week, one new addition: Arpeggio of Blue Steel, only because I went and tried the manga and happen to like the concept of warship AI Avatars ala Andromeda Ascendant.
